Divorced The True Heiress Gets It All novel Chapter 653

Chapter 653

Flynt lurked in the shadows, speaking into his headset, “Hey, Ethan.”

There was no response. Flynt thought that Ethan might be in trouble. He stared at the lab glowing with flames far off, gripping tight till his fingers hurt.

Aria’s work with chemical explosives was just a cover, something she showed on purpose to keep his eyes on her. Therefore, he totally missed what Luna was doing-getting the researchers to turn against them.

At the same time, Dorian said to Wilson, “You and Joel cover us as we move to the dormitory area and capture Margery.”

Wilson nodded. Suddenly, a figure appeared in his sight. He hesitated, and a companion beside him whispered, “Is that Margery?”

Dorian was alert. “Nine o’clock. Kill on sight.”

They all raised their guns at once, firing after the figure into the darkness. However, none of them shoot it.

Dorian said, “She’s trying to escape. Let’s go.”

Arressto’s target was always Margery. Now, with a skilled woman trying to flee, they naturally assumed it was her and didn’t hesitate to open fire.

Flynt, hidden in the shadows, recognized it was Aria. He sneered at Arressto in pursuit and said, “A bunch of fools.” Then he withdrew his gaze and coldly ordered, “Find Dr. Murphy.”

When Flynt saw Ethan’s body, he froze in shock. He crouched down and gently closed his eyes for him. “Rest in peace, Ethan. I’ll kill Margery.”

His recklessness in dragging Aria here had brought about this disaster.

Flynt thought he could lock Aria at the base, wait for Ethan’s experiment to work, and make her forget who she was to turn back into the girl named Madelyn. He realized now he had been too impatient.

Flynt stood up, glanced at the lab, and sneered. This place was destroyed, but he could build a second one. The experiments would never stop.

Wilson started slowing down and ended up last in the thick woods. He wondered, ‘If Margery wanted to run, wouldn’t it be easier to just drive away? Why run solo? It seems like she is trying to throw us off.

Dorian halted abruptly. “Stop.”

They had lost their target. Dorian warned in a low voice, “Margery is hiding in the shadows. Stay alert.”

With no moonlight, the forest was pitch dark, and the path was nearly invisible, which made this place perfect for an ambush. The six moved cautiously, eyes sharp and senses on edge.

Suddenly, someone dropped from above, his knees smashing hard into a guy’s shoulder. The poor guy barely managed a

scream before the man knocked him out.

The mysterious person bounced off, backflipped, and slammed a kick into another guy’s jaw. Just as Dorian drew his gun, he lunged at him.

The team had fallen into chaos. Afraid of killing their teammates, they instinctively lowered their weapons.

Dorian, the best fighter among them, faced the man alone. The others moved to help their knocked-out teammate and sighed in relief when they saw he was still alive.

Joel whimpered, jaw out of joint. Wilson squatted down and popped it back.

Joel said, “It hurts. Since when did Margery get this strong? I thought she couldn’t fight.”

Sounds of punches landing echoed in the dark. They could only see two people fighting.

“Margery is actually fighting with Dorian. Where the hell did she learn to fight?”

“Her main thing is hypnosis. She was the worst fighter at Arressto, yet now she’s become so strong. Killing her just got tougher.”

“Should we back Dorian up?”

Wilson wasn’t sure if it was really Margery. He just couldn’t shake a nagging sense of unease. “No. Dorian is too proud. If you

A heavy smack against a tree cut Wilson off. Dorian slammed into the bark, grimacing.

Just as he was about to strike again, he heard a sharp and annoyed voice. “Are you Arressto guys out of your minds? Why the hell are you chasing me?”

The moment Wilson heard the voice, he knew they were done. That voice sounded too young to be Margery’s. It had to be

Aria.

Dorian froze, his voice laced with disbelief: “Aren’t you Margery?”

Aria said impatiently, “Aria here.”

“What? Aria?” Joel was stunned.

“Hold your fire.” Wilson commanded, “She’s no ally of Margery’s.”

Dorian switched on his flashlight to see clearly. Aria squinted, raising a hand to block the blinding light. In a low voice, she warned, “Do it again and I’ll kill you.”

Once sure she wasn’t Margery, Dorian pulled the light away and asked unhappily, “Why did you lead us off? Where is Margery?”

Aria looked Dorian in the eye and sneered. “I was kidnapped and brought to this base. I found a chance to escape, but I didn’t expect someone to follow me. You’ve got the wrong person and almost killed me. How dare you blame me?”

The air grew heavy and tense, silence pressing in. Wilson said, “It’s just a misunderstanding. We’re after the same target.”

Dorian distrusted Aria. He said coldly to Wilson, “She never wanted to work with us. She was supposed to cut the power, but after attacking for so long, nothing happened, and we had to go to the front door. Wilson, you trusted the wrong person.”

Dorian fixed his gaze on Wilson, giving him one last chance to be honest.

“Work with you?” Aria scoffed. “You weren’t the ones who blew up the lab. What right do you have to complain?”

The deal was simple. They helped Aria blow up the base, and she would help them kill Margery. Now that she had destroyed the base herself, she didn’t have to work with them anymore.
